Disable Google's Account sign-in prompts
Hello,
I am browsing the latest FF and I keep getting the sign in with google pop up on so many sites and I really don't want to sign in with G on so many sites.
I tried setting "Google Account sign-in prompts " to off in my G accounts permissions page but the pop up is still popping.
Any ideas why?
Thanks

That's not from Firefox but whatever site your on or Addon is doing that.
It has to do with Google's account settings. But I followed Google's instructions on how to disable this feature and I still get the pop up, so I thought maybe there's something FF specific.
Yeah, it's popping up everywhere. see screenshot You can mark this as resolved.

Solved? So this is a problem from Google's side?
I thought you said solved. ;-) I saw this option in my google account, but still get pop-ups.

Yes, this should solve the pop up problems but it doesn't. That's why I thought maybe it is FF related...
What you are seeing is a Google service that some websites are using to help people sign into their services.

Yeah, I'm seeing the pop up on sites that are not even connect to my google account. Time to hit Google forum for answers.
I think I only started seeing it after the last FF update(current ver 110.) and it is popping-up on lots of non-google sites. Reviewing the cookies, there was a 'accounts.google.com' cookie. I don't login to google and the cookies are cleared on each FF shut-down, so I think the cookie was part of the popup. To temporally stop the popups, I've blocked the google sites with NoScript (I love that plug-in). Of course, that breaks some sites but I can re-enable specific sites if I need it.
I've been a FF user for years, but if this isn't resolved, I'll have to investigate other browsers.

You could try uBlockOrigin and its filter lists Adguard Annoyances and uBlock Filters - Annoyances. One user suggested adding this to My filters in uBO; you could try searching for it. accounts.google.com/gsi/*$xhr,script,3p
